How to implement DataTable with parameter 'id' in Laravel (DataTables)? - php

Question

I am trying to pass the ID value from the blade file into ajax so it the data table will be routed and will call the ProductActivities function in ProductController.
Here's my snippet code for show() function in ProductController:
public function show($id)
{
$product = Product::find($id);
$data = Product::with(['user_modify'], 'id', $product->user_modified)
->where('product_id', '=', $id)->first();
$category = Category::select('category_name')
->where('category_id', '=', $data->product_type)
->pluck('category_name')
->first();
if($data->count() > 0){
return view('product.view', compact('data', 'category'));
}else{
Toastr::error('Product cannot be retrieved.', 'Error');
return view('product.index');
}
}
And here's the snippet code of JavaScript for the DataTable initialization in view.blade.php file:
#push('js')
<script>
$(function () {
$("#prod_log_tbl").DataTable({
responsive:true,
stateSave:false,
scrollY:true,
autoWidth: false,
ajax: {{ url('product/activities', [Request::segment(3)]) }},
order:[0, 'desc'],
searchable: false,
sortable:false,
fixedColumns: true
});
});
</script>
#endpush
line of code for route in web.php:
Route::get('product/activities/{id}', 'Master\ProductController#ProductActivities')->name('product/activities/{id}');
snippet code for the ProductActivities() function in ProductController:
public function ProductActivities($id)
{
$dataAct = Activity::all()->where('subject_id', '=', $id);
return Datatables::of($dataAct)->make(true);
}
And here's the result of my current progress:
In the screenshot of result the URL that ajax shows has additional values after the ID which I think causes of the DataTable error.
I don't know How I am getting this error? How can I implement the passing of ID from the view blade file through DataTable ajax into the ProductController?
P.S. I use Yajra/DataTable package for Laravel.

I think you do not need php echo in you Ajax url, route helper syntax is
{{ route('routeName', ['id' => 1]) }}
you need route name and parameter, another way is using url helper
{{ url('product/activities/', [Request::segment(3)]) }}
Beside this if you want to use model refer documentation, using first() will give you only one object, you need a collection, better considering get().
